------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jun 11 02:55:55 +0000 2007 ------- One problem we are having with sharing files between users is the unit of measure that a drawing was created in verses the unit of measure of the system the file is being opened in. For example if I create a drawing with some dimensions in and I have my units set to mm's. After I get my drawing appearing perfectly, I email it to someone and they have the default setting of inches. When they open the file the drawing does not show what I intented since all the dimensions are in inches. It would be best to have the "Options" dialog have two tabs for every item: "default" and "document". So if I set my default units to mm's then every file I create will have units in mm's. If I send the file to my friend with her perferred units as Miles my document still opens correctly, in her system the defaults tab would list "Miles" and the document tab would list "mm's". This really should apply to many other items such as grid settings. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
